Can thought move or effect matter? Thought is said to be subjective, insubstantial, with no physical existence or extension. The ability for physical matter to be effected in any way by pure thought at first glance seems to be an absurd impossibility. Yet it happens everyday, virtually every waking moment of our lives.
For example, I have a thought. It forms into an idea that I want to share. This desire becomes my intention and I will my body to move, my finger to move, to press a key on my keyboard. Lo and behold my finger made of physical matter with mass moves. This motion is caused by pure thought, will, alone, which somehow initiates a chain of physical events and reactions, directs and orders force and energy to do my will and my finger moves pressing a key or clicking a mouse button. This initiates another chain of events that results eventually to symbols appearing on computer screens possibly thousands of miles away all around the world. You and others read these symbols and thus know my thoughts. From my mind to your mind all started and caused by will alone.
Our thoughts, ideas, intentions and will have over thousands of years built and created our civilization, science, knowledge, technology and art, changing the world we live in, the way that we live and probably ourselves.
Is this not god like, creation by thought and will?
